Steelers sign 15 UDFA in total. Most intriguing to me is Reggie Runn WR Utah. Only 5'9 but has holy bleep! speed. Ran 4.25 and 4.26 at his pro day. Is also a very accomplished KR. YouTube his returns. Had 4 100+ yd returns last year.

Ok, so his only chance is going to be as pure KR if he can impress enough to warrant a spot there

and 10 kick returns for 513 yards.[1] He had two 100-yard kickoff returns against California to set an NCAA single-game record.[2] A week later, he had a 100-yard kickoff return against Washington State.[3] He then had another 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Colorado. Dunn set NCAA records for kickoff returns for touchdowns in a season (four), 100-yard kickoff returns for touchdowns in a career (five), and 100-yard kickoff returns for touchdowns in a game (two).

Why only 10 kickoff returns? I thought maybe he got hurt, then I looked it looks like he got hurt last 2 games but before that coaching staff didn''t have him returning kicks until 5th game of season..... Figured they'd give a kid with that speed the chance before then lol

Except for the fact its still W&M...a second tier school in the second tier.

William and Mary resides in a hotbed for HS football. Hampton Roads produces a lot of athletes, and W&M grabs talented local kids all the time that don't make it to VT or UVA. Webb is a great example of that.

As for Pitt... I for one expected Pitt to be shut out from this years draft. Arguably the only NFL-caliber guys were Graham and Shanahan; Graham had a very poor performance in the combine, and Shanahan could only get to the NFL level as a pass-catching TE, but is undersized and didn't really outperform any of the natural TE's in the draft in terms of receiving.

Those kids end up at ODU or JMU because they don't have the grades to get into W&M.

Pitt has been terrible at getting guys drafted, but the amount of guys in recent years that have made NFL rosters / stuck around for awhile in a lot of those cases as undrafted is pretty impressive (when consider odds undrafted guys normally have)

Compare the rosters; JMU does not have a pipeline in Hampton Roads... they get some VaBeach kids, but they mostly get kids from Northern Virginia. Webb is from Newport News and there are a few kids from Suffolk, Hampton, etc... different worlds.

And lol at ODU. Didn't even know they had a football team, and I lived a block off Colley in Ghent.

They just re-started their team at the 1-AA level a few years ago and have gotten a bunch of kids that aren't good enough for the 1-A teams. ODU starts with 1-A football next season.
